In this epic poem, Claudius Claudianus tells the tragic tale of Proserpine, the daughter of Ceres who is abducted by Pluto, the god of the underworld. Drawing on the rich mythology of ancient Rome, Claudianus creates a vivid and compelling portrait of love, loss, and redemption, exploring the complex interplay of human desire and divine will that lies at the heart of this timeless story.
